Thursday is Q&A day, but since I just announced it and you haven’t had a chance to send me any questions, I’m going to answer the most common question I get about writing.
How do I start?
This newsletter is really designed to get us started. Because it’s not just about the first line of the whole thing… it was the best of times, it was the worst of times… but about starting every time. You start by trusting in yourself. You start by using a random prompt or idea as something you’re going to incorporate. You start by opening your work in progress on a regular schedule and sitting with it, even if you don’t write anything.
That energy required to start is honestly the hardest part of writing. And that’s what this newsletter is designed to help you do.
